WIN: a prize pack from AMC, including a backpack, flip-flops, stadium blanket, and first-ad kit

HOW: write a funny caption for an image from AMC’s original miniseries ‘Broken Trail’

THE RULES: If you have not won a prize in one of my caption contests or gimme giveaways in 2006*, and you have a United States mailing address, you’re eligible to win. If one or both of those rules exclude you but you’re moved by the muse of comedy, feel free to send me a caption anyway — you might get an honorable mention… but let me know you’re entering only for fun. (*Micropatrons who’ve snagged some exclusive micropatron goodies are eligible to win one of these prizes.)

Oh, two more simple rules: 1) Be clever, be original, make me giggle. 2) One entry per person.
The cable network AMC is debuting its original miniseries Broken Trail this weekend, and to celebrate, I’ve got an AMC prize pack to give away, courtesy of AMC. Here’s the scoop on Broken Trail, from AMC:

The time is 1897 and the territory is the West. Veteran cowboy Print Ritter is ready to trade his life on the range for a ranch of his own. All he has to do is run 500 horses from Oregon to Wyoming to earn the money. He recruits his estranged nephew Tom Harte for the ride, and as the two set out the only trouble they expect is bad weather and strays.

Broken Trail is AMC’s first-ever original movie event. Executive produced by and starring Academy Award® winner Robert Duvall, the four-hour, two-part movie event, will make its world premiere on AMC on June 25 and June 26 at 8:00 pm ET/PT.
